Flood control project on the Pampanga River Basin in the Republic of the Philippines, conducted from 1939 to 1975 following a suggestion from U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, has a unique characteristic. That being an embankment constructed only on the right bank of the river to protect lives ...
aPolychlorinated Biphenyls in Selected Sites in Pasig River and Laguna Lake in the Philippines Before and After a Big Flood Event Investigated Under the UNU East Asia Regional POPs Monitoring Project. 多氯化联苯在选择的站点在Pasig河和Laguna湖在菲律宾在一个大洪水事件前后被调查在监测项目的UNU东亚地方...
Flood events increase the risk of sediment erosion and hence the release of particle-bound pollutants besides other processes that can be observed during such events like transportation, lateral distribution and other. Macropollutants, such as acids, salts, nutrients, and natural organic matter, are ...
As a common geo-engineering method to control internal load of nutrients and pollutants, sediment dredging has been used in many freshwater basins and has
We used a distance linear model to partition the contribution of abiotic and biotic factors, including zoning, as drivers of the observed changes in coral and macro-algae cover. Moderate flood plumes from 2007 to 2009 did not affect coral cover on reefs in the Keppel Islands, suggesting the ...

Crop production in Southeast Asia is a significant part of the region’s economy and food security. Cambodia, Indonesia, Lao PDR, Malaysia, Myanmar, Philippines, Thailand, and Viet Nam produce a range of agricultural products, including palm oil, rice, maize, cassava, sugarcane, and others30....
Learning and Action Alliances for the integration of flood risk management into urban planning: A new framework from empirical evidence from The Netherlands. Environ. Sci. Policy 2011, 14, 543–554. [Google Scholar] [CrossRef] Mowla, Q.A.; Islam, M.S. Natural Drainage System and Water ...
Accurate prediction of flood events presupposes the study of runoff processes in different periods, and runoff prediction is of great importance for river flood control [5]. As a hydrological model, the SWAT model can be widely used to study runoff and water quality simulation of climate change...
2e–h), while plots under AWD were irrigated following the principle of ‘safe AWD’ (Lampayan et al., 2015). AWD plots were irrigated when water level drops 12-15 cm below soil surface, while CF plots were irrigated regularly as and when needed (12–15 times). To monitor floodwater ...
